VisualVM collect performance data over a period of time

for Java I am using VisualVM to monitor CPU, Memory, Thread info. Is there a way from VisualVM to collect this information for a range of time so that i am able to present it in a graph.

In VisualVM under Monitor tab i am able to see CPU,Classes,Heap and thread graph. I would like to be able to collect this data over a period of time when i run my load test. Later on present it on graph for later analysis.

If VisualVM is not the tool please suggest alternate option.

Thanks

  • You can use Tracer plugin for monitoring. Select probes which suits your needs and you should be able to export monitored data, which can be used to construct the graph of your choice.
